Mk 15:15

Now, more than ever, we are faced with everyone’s life as they want it to be seen, and the comparison to our own lives stirs up envy. You do not want this spirit festering in you, but what about the damage envy causes when it is coming against you from another person? In this reading plan, you will discover how to overcome envy, safeguard your heart, and walk in freedom.

We all have a common denominator. We will die. I will die. You will die. Death will defeat you. You won’t be able to dodge it, sidestep it, trick it or make it disappear. But then there is Jesus, the man who defeated the grave. Jesus stood toe to toe with the grave and defeated death. When Jesus talks, the grave speaks.

Stephan Joubert gesels oor Paasfees en herinner jou dat dit by die kruis is waar God wys hoe lief Hy vir ons is. In die Lydenstyd en Paastyd beleef ons opnuut hoe duur Jesus se aardse sending Hom gekos het. Ons herinner onsself dat Hy selfs die dood moes trotseer sodat ons vir altyd in sy lig mag leef. Jesus het inderdaad sy grootste wonderteken vir laaste gelos.

Let’s slow down this Holy Week and learn from Christ’s final days on earth. Each day we will receive lessons or gifts that He took the time to give. Do you need a fresh reminder of what mattered most to Christ—that you love His people and follow Him? What could He want to teach you this Holy Week?
